About the Item

Antique French Directoire style Settee ~ Canape is ideal for a light and airy look, with a minimal footprint for more cozy seating arrangements. The rich coloration of the solid sycamore framework is offset by the openness of the seatback and armrest framework, which combines a comfortably curved top rim supported by sturdy cornerposts and vertical slats all around. The seat is perfect for two, and is upholstered in very serviceable, durable fabric. A single tier of ebonized molding provides a nice bordering effect. Gracefully splayed legs provide sturdy support. Ideal in front of a window, in the middle of a room, or anywhere a comfortable, lightweight seat for two is needed! Circa mid-1900s Measures 27.5 H x 57 W x 23.5 D; seat 17 H.
